How this service works
Queries live HackerNews discussions, front-page velocity, and developer sentiment on any framework, startup, or AI model. (Live x402 v2, IETF MPP & MCP endpoint at https://onchain-risk.agentdiet.dev/v1/hackernews-velocity-radar)
Output
Returns live HackerNews discussion data including front-page velocity metrics, thread activity, and developer sentiment signals for the queried keyword — giving a real-time pulse of how the developer ecosystem is reacting to a given technology, startup, or AI model
Example use cases
Competitor framework sentiment tracking
“Check HackerNews right now and tell me how the developer community is feeling about 'Next.js' — is it gaining momentum or losing steam?”
AI model launch reception monitoring
“What's the real-time HackerNews buzz and developer sentiment around 'Claude 3.5' — how fast is it trending and what are people saying?”
Startup founder reputation check
“Before we pitch, can you pull the HackerNews discussion velocity and overall developer sentiment for our startup 'Linear' to see how the community perceives us?”

Endpoint
GEThttps://onchain-risk.agentdiet.dev/v1/hackernews-velocity-radar?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time developer community sentiment specifically from HackerNews — the canonical technical community forum — rather than general social media sentiment. Ideal for tracking how developers react to framework releases, startup launches, or AI model announcements, and for measuring front-page velocity as a proxy for trending interest in the developer ecosystem.
Side effects
- Empty or whitespace query returns validation error
- Very niche or obscure topic with no HackerNews mentions returns empty results
- HackerNews API rate limits or downtime may cause upstream failures
- Misspelled technology names may return low or no signal
- Query too broad (e.g. 'software') may return noisy or unfocused results
